Nihonbashi Thank you (39) Tour of shrines!

[Hikoharu Co., Ltd.] July 6, 2017 16:00

It was hot that day. I thought I would try to write on my blog today. But I thought I needed something to write a blog. I decided to shed light on many shrines in Nihonbashi, which I had been interested in for a long time. The rules are simple, and visit the shrines in the Nihonbashi area as much as possible. (However, bicycles are OK) If so, I copied the Chuo-ku History Map to the Chuo-ku Library and started from Tokyo Station.

39 Unnamed shrine found in Hamacho

 

Through this tour of the shrines, I was able to reaffirm that the religion of Shinto and Buddha during the Edo period was more enthusiastic than we imagined today. There are many shrines in Chuo Ward that could not be taken up this time, but quietly watching us on the roof of the building. And even at shrines driven in buildings and behind alleys, I want local people to be protected and connected to the present and future.

 

Finally, I'm going to finish my blog by describing it as a way to find a shrine easily.

That means "always walk around the city with awareness of color."

(1) Look for red or Shirohata

(2) Find green (plants) in the streets of green buildings and buildings

It's such a simple thing, but if you're visiting a shrine, please try it.

(However, when looking for a red hata, be careful about the "large sale" bata.)
